Hey Net, hope you are doing well? I thought you'd like to know that I received an email this morning from INSP that Dish Network is cancelling them from their lineup. They don't understand why that is, as it's free to Dish. They don't have to pay for it. I thought maybe your readers who have Dish might like to flood them with emails.

I also subscribe via YouTube and find it a fantastic value at only $14.99 a year, and it's all family-friendly programming. I even have anytime access to some of my favorite Hallmark movies from past years.

So excited that "When Duty Calls" is showing on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries! I don't have PixL so I'm happy to see some of their movies showing up elsewhere. I'm definitely not going to miss the HMM premier in March. Thanks so much for this tidbit!!

One of the most pleasing aspects of this is that even though it is airing at the beginning of March and on HMM it helps to fill a gap since the main channel is only showing one new movie in this month.

I would personally like to see a more equitable schedule. They could perhaps have 2 or 3 fewer at Christmas and show them at times like these.

It could even be a Christmas-themed one - if they can show a Christmas movie in July they could even show one in March!

I saw "When Duty Calls" recently and I didn't like it as much I liked "The Reluctant Nanny". I felt that the sequence of scenes was too choppy. Also, there was not enough focus on the mystery of the movie as I would have liked. Because the reveal of who was causing the burglaries came a little too early in the film, it seemed to take the fun out of trying to solve the mystery. I do hope that more PixL movies are shown on television to give people more of a variety of what PixL has to offer.
